Pet care experience

Home away from home with a caring family

I will treat your fur baby like one of the family. They will get lots of attention and cuddles but also time to snooze. We go for walks in the park and/or woods so they will get a chance to stretch their legs too.

I needed a new go to for our little shih tzu as the lady who we had always used since he was a puppy moved out of area. We first did a meet and greet with Rita and her lovely shih tzu Fitzroy before the first date with her - safe to say Rita is absolutely our new go to and we feel so much more content knowing we have Rita to look after our Cosmo during a 2 week holiday later this year. She is so kind and caring and sent us lots of lovely pictures. HIGHLY recommend her to anyone seeking care for their dog.

Rita took care of my dog for 30 days and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the start, she was communicative, reliable and clearly loves what she does. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. My dog came back happy, healthy and clearly very well looked after. It’s obvious Rita pays close attention to each dog’s needs and treats them like her own. I would absolutely trust her again for long stays and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter. Thank you, Rita!

We were very nervous about leaving our puppy and looked into lots of different options before speaking to Rita. We were away for 18 nights and I couldn't recommend Rita enough. She replied straight away and arranged a house viewing. We went with our pup, Teddy, and she answered all our questions. Whilst we were away she kept us updated with photos and check ins. Teddy had a wonderful time. We are away again next year and won't hesitate to leave him with Rita and her family again.

Rita was great, from day one we received photos of Teddy, kept us well updated with photos and messages. Great environment for dogs to run around and also relax. I would not hesitate in recommending Rita to anyone looking for a caring dog owner who puts your mind at ease. Thank you Rita!!

I can’t recommend Rita highly enough! She looked after my cockapoo, Freddy, for two weeks over the summer while I was away on holiday, and she was absolutely fantastic. From the very start, Rita was professional, kind, and clearly experienced with dogs. While I was away, she kept me completely at ease by sending regular updates and photos of Freddy, which really reassured me that he was happy and well cared for. It was lovely to see him enjoying his walks, cuddles, and playtime. When I returned, Freddy was relaxed, cheerful, and clearly had been very well looked after. It’s not easy leaving your dog for that long, but Rita made the whole experience stress-free. I will definitely be booking her again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.
